Course Catalog

Resources

The new 2019-20 course catalog has arrived! In it, you will find a list of our offered
courses and those you need to take to graduate. But the Course Catalog also includes
an academic calendar, admissions policies, an estimated cost of attendance and USAO's
accreditations.

We hope you find it useful in every way as you plan your path to graduation and beyond.
Our admissions materials may have given you a sense of the unique mission and distinctly
different curriculum that makes USAO a nationally recognized model for interdisciplinary
learning. Here in the catalog, you will see this more fully explained.

The policies and graduation requirements applicable when you enroll as a first-time
student – freshman or transfer – will remain in effect for you until you graduate.
You'll start over under a new catalog after six years or if you leave college and
return after one fall and spring term. Remember when you started, because in general
that’s the catalog that applies to you.

Get enrolled or start your USAO experience in theOffice of Admissions. You will be assigned a faculty advisor who will help guide you
through the process toward your degree plan.
